PORTSMOUTH — Barbara Lavin, who owns Surrentum Salon with her husband, is looking to help the victims of the Haiti disaster by offering up the salon’s styling services.

Surrentum Salon’s cut-a-thon is 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 31. All proceeds will benefit the victims of the earthquake in Haitia.

Women’s haircuts, which are usually $40, will be offered at half price. Men’s haircuts, typically costing $23, will be offered for $10. Additional donations will be accepted.

“We are all very excited about this and it is wonderful to see business come together for a good cause,” Lavin said.

Edible Arrangements of Portsmouth will supply balloons and strawberries dipped in chocolate and Redhook Ale Brewery has agreed to donate beer for the event. Lavin hopes for an appearance by Mayor Tom Ferrini sometime during the fund-raiser.

Three of the salon’s four stylists will donate their time. No appointments are necessary and cuts will be given on a first-come, first-served basis.

“The staff at Surrentum Salon are looking forward to a successful event for a good cause to help those who have been stricken by such a catastrophic earthquake,” Lavin said.

Surrentum Salon is at 968 Middle Road. For more information, call 431-7878.
